I was in seminary for six years, and a 20% drop-out/expulsion rate was considered high. And this was one of the most conservative seminaries in the country, at the time. But, it was very tough to get in, as the University of Dallas had very high admission standards.

And yet it is possible somewhere in the world there is a higher standard. It is possible Econe is one such place.
Please do not spend too much time praying the rosary for them. I am sure they will dry up and blow away for lack of vocations any day now.
Besides there must be a place for those who drop out or refuse to return to Econe yet still wish to be priests. Hummm let’s put on our thinking cap. Where on earth would these fellows go? Who would be nuts enough to take them?
